OCZ comunica di aver raggiunto un accordo per l'acquisizione di Indilinx, azienda dedicata allo sviluppo di controller per dischi a stato solido
Indilinx is a company that owes its rise to the world of SSDs. Came to prominence in 2009 thanks to its controller Barefoot used by OCZ , this type of chip has been for some time a viable alternative to Intel solutions, ensuring a good performance level. SandForce with its own controller SandForce SF-1200 and 1500 came only in 2010. The relationship between OCZ and
Indilinx have always been very close, but with the announcement made yesterday, this report assumes an entirely different aspect. OCZ has in fact made the signing of pubbici Indilinx Co. agreed to acquire for a figure closer to $ 32 million in shares OCZ. The deal should close within 30 days.
The reason that led to acquire OCZ Indilinx is primarily a: invest in the future. OCZ is currently the leading brand marketing solutions SandForce controller, but it is not the only one competition may be fierce for the American company, which would have no way to respond. Hence the need to develop their own controller, through the acquisition of Indilinx.
According to information circulated recently Indilinx would focus on the development of the new controller 6Gbps , nome in codice Jet Stream. Di questo chip però non ci sono informazioni precise, il che starebbe ad indicare qualche problema di troppo durante la fase di sviluppo.
Quali risvolti avrà questa acquisizione sul mercato? A oggi nessuna. Proviamo a chiarire meglio. OCZ continuerà a produrre e commercializzare SSD basati su controller SandForce, ancora per diverso tempo. Con il passare dei mesi sarà possibile veder arrivare sul mercato nuove unità con controller OCZ: la scelta di competere direttamente con le soluzioni SandForce o sviluppare una famiglia alternativa sarà appannaggio dell'azienda.
Secondo i termini dell'accordo OCZ acquisirà le proprietà intellettuali di Indilinx, compresi about 20 patents in addition to patent applications.
Following the acquisition by OCZ Indilinx continue to produce and deliver its own line of controllers, both manufacturers of both SSD OEMs. The branch is intended to Indilinx controller, consisting of 45 employees, will remain under the leadership of Bumsoo Kim, founder and president of Indilinx and Hyumo Chung, CTO Korean. To address this
